Figure 2

Induction of expression of cytokines, chemokines and cell adhesion molecule in A549 cells cocultured with MT-2 cells. A549 cells were cocultured with MMC-treated MT-2 or CCRF-CEM cells. At 3 and 5 days after cocultivation, A549 cells were harvested and then the expression of the indicated genes was analyzed by RT-PCR. (A) Genes that were upregulated by HTLV-I infection. (B) Detection of Tax protein in A549 cells cocultured with MT-2 cells. (C) Genes that were not affected by HTLV-I infection. (D) Expression of cytokine genes in NCI-H292 cells cocultured with MT-2 or CCRF-CEM cells.
